A website geared toward educating elementary, middle, high school and college students about voting and the United States electoral system aims to transform young people into tomorrow’s voters by using technology and fun lessons and exercises. GrowingVoters.org is a project designed by Jo-Anne Hart, an international relations and ed tech professor at Lesley University in Cambridge, MA. She’s also an adjunct professor of international and public affairs at the Watson Institute at Brown University. The site contains nonpartisan classroom activities, lesson plans and resources designed to foster students’ interest and background in U.S. political and electoral processes — years before they actually get to the voting booth.
